ABC2 News Meteorologist Mike Masco's blooper on Sunday's newscast went viral this week.

During the show, Masco mistyped his forecasted temperature for Monday.  Instead of typing 75 degrees, he typed 775 degrees.

Since then, the story was picked up by People Magazine, The Daily Mail and Media Bistro.
